Can I half-cheat and say Control?

Is it a metroidvania?

It is… kind of. Hence the half-cheat. First off it’s 3D, but the game is completely centered around the Oldest House, which is the headquarters of the fictional FBC. Like a Metroidvania you explore and backtrack back and forth through it and unlock new areas opening up from previous places. There is also one (although only one) proper ability gate that lets you explore previously unreachable parts of earlier areas once unlocked.

Even if you don’t classify it as a true Metroidvania it’s definitely Metroidvania-inspired.

allidoislietomyself,

I would absolutely categorize Control as a metroidvania game. It has all the characteristics of one. I know some debate it because it’s so combat focused but aside from that it checks all the Metroidvania boxes.

mic_check_one_two,

I wanted to enjoy this game, but it gave me hardcore motion sickness after about 10 minutes. I haven’t had that happen in very many games, so it was notable in this one.

DaTingGoBrrr,

Sorry to hear that. In my opinion it’s a great fantastic metroidvania and puzzle game. It reminds me of Zelda and Portal too. Isn’t there a way to disable head bobbing in the settings or some other option to reduce the motion sickness? Have you tried reducing mouse speed? If noting helps then you could try contacting the developer about it. Maybe they can fix it.

Halo lol

Halo 3 Theater was the best, imo. Idk why, but I never really bothered with it in the later games, aside from ODST.

I like Reach’s purely for the rewind feature. I wish MCC brought it to all theaters (and also brought Theater too all games in the collection)

Besides all the already mentionend games: Shadow Complex (2009) was a good game back then. Nothing special without any real story. But it was fun to play

Ashtear, do gaming w Are there any good communities, Lemmy or otherwise, for gamers 30+?

It’s not explicitly 30+, but I think !retrogaming is one of the best active gaming communities on the Fediverse with a good mix of links and discussion, and the nature of the content certainly attracts older gamers.

The community is dead, most recent post more than a year ago, or is this a bug on my end? Or we defederated and I’m no aware?

Ashtear,

Could be? I know Beehaw is defederated from a lot but I haven’t kept up. The community is definitely active.

Lfrith,

There’s posts this month, so might be the case if on beehaw.

Sas,

Yee i think we’re defederated from world and from what i hear of that place it’s probably for the better

The gameplay could have used a little work, but man as an overall experience Guardians of the Galaxy was pretty great. I’d love to see them get a sequel, or a similar game with a different super-team like the Exiles.

I played it on ps4 and it was quite buggy but the story was awesome. Didn’t expect it to be that good. It was the last game I played on my ps4

I totally forgot about the Guardians game. I don’t think I ever finished it. Got lost in the hustle and bustle of life.

Gonna have to go back through that.

dil,

The exiles would make a fire custom hero game, make your own xman variant

dil,

Sadly a concept made for live service, going world to world doing missions

Congratulations! I’m happy when I finish two games in a year.

If you like 8-bit gaming, I recommend getting the free BBC micro emulator BeebEm

Then get the ROM Citadel

It’s a Metroidvania from before either Metroid or Castlevania. It still plays well, it’s still difficult, the puzzles are logical but require thought, and it’s several hours of gameplay to complete.

@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

That’s a nice list. Did you finish all the games you started? Or drop some games too?

spaciouscoder78,
@spaciouscoder78@lemmy.ml avatar

My backlog list has ~43 games in it. Most of which were dropped a few hours into the game. Those are by far, the toughest games that I mentally need to get back to and finish them

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

You don’t have to finish all the games. It’s okay to drop games you aren’t enjoying. In the long run, time is a much more scarce commodity than money.

spaciouscoder78,
@spaciouscoder78@lemmy.ml avatar

Yeah. Some games were dropped forever but some games were dropped because I lost interest in them but still wish to play them as I paid for them

gotta ask: what happened 2007?

spaciouscoder78,
@spaciouscoder78@lemmy.ml avatar

2007 was the time since i’ve been playing video games. This is the first year where I actually spent a lot of hours on gaming and finished a lot of games.

Arkham Asylum but not the rest? /s

I loved Spider-Man and Miles Morales, I need to play Spider-Man 2 but I’m waiting for a better sale on steam.

Also, Guardians of the Galaxy blew me away with how fun and awesome it was. Like I honestly feel bad for waiting so long to play it.

spaciouscoder78,
@spaciouscoder78@lemmy.ml avatar

Arkham Asylum was the last Arkham game i played. Played it in reverse order.

Seeing as I am old. Super Metroid and Castlevania II: Simom’s Quest. I can… and have played them dozens of times through at this point.

I don’t care much for metroidvanias but Dust: An Elysian Tail was fun for a playthrough or two.
